Yesterday, October 28th, the crypto world was thrilled by the release of Zcash, the first digital currency that promises total anonymity and high level of privacy.

Bitcoin, the first and most well known digital currency based on blockchain technology, is characterized by a public ledger that register each transaction that occurs in the network, the address wallet of senders and receivers. This feature can be a problem if users are not extremely careful, because these information can reveal both the financial behavior and the real identities of the people behind the accounts.

The enthusiasm for Zcash tokens is very high because this currency solves this privacy problem by encrypting each transaction; using this layer of encryption transactions don’t leave any trace on the blockchain and no one is able to know the address wallet of senders and receivers or the amount spent. The Zcash blockchain records the occurred transactions, hiding any other information. The metadata of the transaction is encrypted and the zk-SNARK format, developed by Zcash team, prevents theft or cheating.

How can I mine Zcash?

Zcash, like bitcoin, can be created by “mining”, solving mathematical problems using computers. But unlike bitcoin, Zcash code plans for the first four years that a portion of every mined Zcash coin (10%) will go to Zcash company and another 1% of the mined coins will go to a non-profit created to sustain the development of the code and the community.

EthereumWisdom is a simple page to display the realtime ethereum price from various exchanges; the idea is inspired by BitcoinWisdom, that offers the same service for Bitcoin and altcoins.
We will implement other features in the spare time, such as charts and 24h volume.

As promised one month ago this update has been released in time, thus the partnership with Bitcoin.de is now fully achieved! This service is available for German users, but also in English.

Users are now able to check the Bitcoin’s price, the history and the orderbook of the market of Bitcoin.de every minute, using the section “Buy btc” in Bitcoin Map.
Users that wants to buy or sell BTC are redirected into the website to complete the order.
